Interventions

  • Chemotherapy — DRUG
    Patients will receive continuation of second or initiate third-line chemotherapy regimen at the discretion and decision of treating oncologist.
  • Endoscopic Ultrasound-Guided Radiofrequency Ablation (EUS-RFA) — DEVICE
    EUS-RFA will be delivered using the EUSRA RF Electrode, which is a sterile, single-use electrosurgical accessory for coagulation and ablation of soft tissue when used in conjunction with compatible radio frequency generator (VIVA Combo RF Generator). The device will be used during a routine EUS, which is a minimally invasive procedure used to assess gastrointestinal diseases. Each EUS-RFA procedure will last approximately 60 minutes.

Study Details

This is a single arm study in the treatment of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). The investigators propose to test the tolerability of chemotherapy plus endoscopic ultrasound-guided radiofrequency ablation (EUS-RFA) using the RF Electrode in patients receiving palliative second or third line therapy for unresectable non-metastatic pancreatic cancer.

Arms

  • Experimental: Chemotherapy plus EUS-RFA
    Endoscopic ultrasound-guided radiofrequency ablation (EUS-RFA) and chemotherapy will be administered as part of standard of care treatment for PDAC in patients receiving palliative second- or third-line therapy for unresectable non-metastatic pancreatic cancer. Study participants will undergo 3 identical EUS-RFA procedures, administered during Study Window 2 (Weeks 1-3), Window 3 (Weeks 5-7), and Window 4 (Weeks 9-11). During each EUS-RFA procedure, a tumor biopsy will also be taken for single cell RNA sequencing. Chemotherapy will be administered during Study Window 2 (Weeks 1-3), Window 3 (Weeks 5-7), Window 4 (Weeks 9-11), and Window 5 (Weeks 13-15).
